Nippon Paper Industries has established a new local subsidiary in Australia to further strengthen the liquid packaging carton business and facilitate global business expansion.

To facilitate expansion into the Oceanian market, Nippon Paper signed a license agreement covering the Oceania region with Elopak ASA, a leading global supplier of liquid packaging cartons, in March 2022.

In addition, Nippon Paper entered into a general agency agreement separately with Shikoku Kakoki Co.,Ltd., the largest liquid packaging carton filling machine producer in Japan, with respect to sales of filling machines in the region. With the opening of the new local subsidiary, Nippon Paper succeeded in establishing a system to sell paper packages with Elopak's Pure-Pak brand and Nippon Paper's NP-PAK brand, as well as filling machines produced by Shikoku Kakoki.

Nippon Paper Industries produces newsprint, coated and uncoated paper, specialty papers, converting grades, and paperboard.
